Should I mention a release time at all for 1.0 or should I avoid that until we have a better idea of which bugs remain on the 1.0 milestone? I hope to start writing this weekend, so if there is something you would specifically like covered (iTunes 7, OpenGL Child windows, etc), please let me know either by e-mail or on this list and I'll do my best to incorporate it. ---Alex

The same argument goes for gdi-video. So, we should have: gdi printing and any bugs that are marked as wine-gdi-(printing) should be set to one or the other. -- James Hawkins

re: Wine at Systems in Munich

by Dan Kegel

It would be great to have a booth there, hope somebody can go. It's kind of hard to do a good booth on short notice, though. Let's remember that this is coming up next year, and plan for it. Can you send me contact info for the organizers? Thanks, Dan

Lumping *all* gdi/printing bugs into gdi-(printing) is a bad idea. -- James Hawkins

Personally, I think a writeup of wineconf (if you can, I know you weren't there) would be a great place to start it back up again. The biggest news there, I think, is that we're finally trying to go for a 1.0 release. --Juan

For a minute there, it sounded like vandals were removing edit rights of users, and it was unclear which ones!
